Sign behind the Canton, Georgia, Cherokee County courthouse. There is probably an associated story. I don’t know it, but it does seem likely. There is another sign about 20 feet further on on the other side of the road.

@mwichary - The 'Ministry'/Llewellyn-Smith lettering (https://www.fontspring.com/fonts/device/ministry/ministry-light) used for Pre-Worboys (https://www.sabre-roads.org.uk/w/index.php?title=Pre-Worboys) road signage in the UK might be an example of this.

Curious about the sign, I looked up The Anchorage and found this for sale page saying it was recently sold, but an archive.org copy from 2019 shows the seller was looking for €695,000 back then.
